ABOUT HOLT FINTECH ACCELERATOR

Backed by Holdun, Holt Accelerator is Canada’s most active seed fintech investor. We track over 10,000 early stage fintechs globally, and solicit the ones that present a best match with our Advisor network. Through 2 cohorts, we’ve received over 1,000 applications from close to 75 countries, in which we then invest up to $130K in the top 1% of applications globally. We’ve helped our 18 active investments reach their milestones, which includes over 30 deals established that were half with financial institutions as customers, and half with institutional investors, resulting portfolio companies raising an additional $30 million post program, up from $12 million prior to entering the program.
